A syndrome that occurs, usually in or around the month of May where a Laker hater jumps onto the band wagon of any and every team that the Los Angeles Lakers face. The band wagon jumping is usually accompanied by loudly proclaiming that the opposing team (and/or its individual players) is the second coming, and a lock to defeat Kobe and company.

Hater: "Denver is gonna wipe the floor with Lakers."
Fan: "Don't worry about him, he just suffers from ABL."

The Very Same Hater, just 10 days later: "Utah is the truth. They're just too physical for the Lakers. Utah ftw!"
Another Fan: Sounds like somebody's ABL is acting up."

Stands for Asian Basketball League: What happens when a whole bunch of Asian guys get into any university or inner city gym and start playing some pickup b-ball. It is often characterized by an impressive plethora of mad handlesankle breakers and totally sweet hairdo's, but a curious lack of elegance with regards putting the ball through the hoop.

"Dude, I was playing some pickup today at the Y and this sick AZN kid shook me so hard, but then stuffed himself with the rim."
